Had a quick search for you, I think as a general approach you'll have to break down the description into something less broad, like specializations.

I did find one site, called Earthworks, which might be useful.

http://www.earthworks-jobs.com/enviro.htm

The site has jobs starting in 2008 and some still current in 2007. There's also a few which have deadlines from earlier this year, and something that looks like a typo saying 2005.

This search may help. There's a few internships on the front page, and it looks, to somebody who's not in the field, like there would be a few leads.

You will need to check out visa and work requirements in Canada. Here's another search:

Strongly suggest you ask any possible employers about your situation as a foreign national. Some will at least be able to give pointers. It's best not to apply for a job and then have to battle the red tape to get there. Make sure you have enough lead time to apply and do the paperwork and travel arrangements.

I strongly trying to recommend trying to get yourself an internship somewhere since you are right out of school. Once that opportunity is gone it is one that is not possible to get again. You might see if your college's career center can be of any help when it comes to job or internship placement.

Of course, you should look for regular jobs too, and just see what pans out. What is meant to be, will be.
